Looking back at Manchester City’s now defunct former home Maine Road with fans giving their memories on various moments at the ground…
@MCFC Remember it well. Heavily pregnant with my Ed, waddling up Main Stand steps, emotions/hormones getting the better of me
I ? Maine Rd

@MCFC @SouthamptonFC remember the day vaguely, sat in the Main stand, we lost and Badly Drawn Boy sang at the after party ???

Fans also gave their memories on the Kippax…
@MCFC Colin Bells comeback game. The loudest I ever heard the Kippax. Still sends shivers down my spine.

@JJthemanc @MCFC pissing in an empty pint pot then tipping it out as you couldn’t move! That was the norm back then, gross but the norm.

@MCFC used to stand at the back & every time we scored we ended up on the front. Took a good ten minutes to get back to the original spot

One fan posted a photo of an old looking club shop…
